Hi. I have made macros for bouncing the selected part without any processing from the main output. It's actually an updated version of a macro I had found on the internet a long time ago. I found myself using it a lot lately, so I had to share it.

There are two versions. The second version also mutes the part that's bounced. And that needs 3 project logical presets to be made.

To use it, firstly you must adjust the settings in your export window. Select main outs. "Import into project" and "Close after export" must be selected. Also give a name like "bounce" or anything, and click that arrow on the right, and select "auto update name". Actually, these are pretty basic settings.

Select the track and the part you want to bounce and fire the macro. 8-)

Macro for bouncing without any processing from the main-outs (and also auto muting what's bounced)

http://www.steinberg.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=181&t=51477

usage: select the track and part you want to bounce. fire the macro.

The cool thing here is, you set the export window once, and bounce whatever you can, no need to select output when exporting, no need to assign your vsti or audio output to a specific group etc. Your bounce will be unaffected by your main output eq / insert chain.

I guess, if you keep a copy of a part (with cc11=127 in it) anywhere in the project, you could make a macro and project logical editor combo, that finds that part, copies and pastes it in your current position.

(finding that part means naming it specifically, then making a project logical editor that selects the part with that name)

Thanks estrica2000. I edited that post to include the mute command. While typing the macro to the post, I skipped that part somehow. (And it's strange that for such a useful macro, you seem to be the only one that has tried it)

Ah I found it. Thank you. It's as easy as "container type = track" then prepend to name... But the menu you created is great. I am going to build something like it, and try to remove all those key combinations from my brain.

I brought this subject before and will not die before I see it in Cubase.

You guys know, when you select an audio track and click the "e" button, the Channel settings pops up. Then you go to another track, and the Channel settings window follows your selection to the newly selected track. (If you have your project and mixer synced)

So far so good and so practical...

But if you select a midi track ( tied to a rack instrument ), the same window now shows the MIDI inserts/sends, instead of the VST instrument's audio settings which would make sense. :roll:

For external Midi, it surely must be the way it is. But for the rack instrument, the audio output is much more important.

So, to sum up :

On one side, we have Channel settings for MIDI that you can put Midi inserts, Midi sends, Midi volume.On the other side, there's the Channel settings for Audio output for that track, which has way more usage benefit. (you can insert your Audio FX plugins, control your Audio Sends, you have the EQ and channel strip and routing and everything!!!)
